With the development of the Internet and the growth of online resources, bioinformatics training for wet-lab biologists became necessary as a part of their education. This article describes a one-semester course 'Applied Bioinformatics Course' (ABC, http://abc.cbi.pku.edu.cn/) that the author has been teaching to biological graduate students at the Peking University and the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences for the past 13 years. ABC is a hands-on practical course to teach students to use online bioinformatics resources to solve biological problems related to their ongoing research projects in molecular biology. With a brief introduction to the background of the course, detailed information about the teaching strategies of the course are outlined in the 'How to teach' section. The contents of the course are briefly described in the 'What to teach' section with some real examples. The author wishes to share his teaching experiences and the online teaching materials with colleagues working in bioinformatics education both in local and international universities.
随着互联网的发展和在线资源的增长,生物信息学培训对于湿实验室生物学家来说成为了他们教育的一部分。本文描述了一门作者在过去 13 年里一直在北京大学和中国农业科学院为生物研究生教授的一学期课程“应用生物信息学课程”(ABC,http://abc.cbi.pku.edu.cn/)。ABC 是一门实践课程,旨在教授学生使用在线生物信息学资源来解决与他们正在进行的分子生物学研究项目相关的生物学问题。在课程背景简介之后,“如何教学”部分详细介绍了课程的教学策略。“教什么”部分简要描述了课程内容,并提供了一些实际示例。作者希望与从事生物信息学教育的国内外大学的同事分享他的教学经验和在线教学材料。
